hailing from leipzig in germany is an artist whos music has been pricking up many ears across the global underground over the last few years. its hard to put a finger on what it is about kassem mosses productions that make repeated listening a must, but the intricacy, fresh arrangements and musical depth definitely play a part in attracting labels such as the highly respected techno imprint workshop, the legendary soma records and now nonplus are honoured to present his latest 12 inch. a) kassem mosse – >we speak to those< first up on the a-side we have >we speak to those< a 4/4 track of the highest quality that keeps you guessing from start to finish. the rugged and raw kick and bassline immediately set the foundations for the incoming awkward chord stabs whilst reversed beats lazily slur in and out over the main groove giving the track the unnerving feeling that its almost changing tempo. random sound effects and a non conforming arrangement make this track about as predictable as the english summer. one listen to this and youll immediately understand why this artist is getting love from some of the scenes biggest players at the moment. aa) kassem mosse – >hi res< phased drum machine breakbeat patterns and stutered percussion redolent of the early detroit techno uprising give this track an outstanding quality of being able to conjure up the same feelings of hope and optimism for electronic music that the aforementioned era managed to. thought provoking chord progressions take your mind on an excursion to the future and leave you gagging for an extended trip. think skyways, flying cars and towering metal buildings footed with dark abysmal underworlds and youll get the drift. they don t come much deeper than this one

green could not have found a finer match. the melodic genius of ripperton is wonderfully sculpted by the uk producer, who delivers not one, but two remixes. part 1 sees radio slave taking leonor s lanugo on a deep, hypnotic workout. its warm, all encompassing bassline works brilliantly with its tribal drum line to deliver a deadly take on the original. on part 2 radio slave takes a housier direction. rock solid beats are interwoven with the original s beautiful string melody as bird calls and wild cats prowling add to the incredible suspense to create an inspiring remix.

matt moroder - one half of the team that brought you the short-lived but no less notorious glossy series - unearthes his new ambitious -little leaf- project compiling other producers and his own reworks of songs that are not your usual disco/ boogie fare but demand a true diggers and imaginative djs mind to spot their dancefloor potential. matt moroder proves this ability right away with the blinding, hypnotizing >secret secret< - an interpretation of a cut by one the biggest, most avantgardistic 70s rock/ pop icons. he extends a short portion of the originals beat, loops the jagged guitar riff and throws in more layers of congas, shaker, handclaps etc before revealing the tracks secret by throwing in parts of the chorus sung by this totally distinctive, instantly recognizable voice. flip over for spanish producer nelues take on >porque te vas< - a one hit wonder song that had worldwide success after being the main theme in carlos saura cannes-winning movie >cria cuervos<. already an unusual mixture in its original form - breathy lolitaesque vocals gel ingeniously with a more 60s bubblegum orchestration of horns, big beats and folky guitar - nelue does a great job with sublte loops and additional bubbly synth overdubs while keeping the sing-a-long charm intact. both tracks already recieve well-desereved support from mark-e, gilb-r ( chateau flight ), beppe loda, tim sweeney and more main players. these two big cuts shouldnt need extra arguments, but since mr moroder is a generous guy he also throws in some extra special, lush artwork for this vinyl only release
